Neat ideas! As someone who really loves Mirage as a character but can't stand his useless abilities, I'd love a rework.
Interesting thoughts!
Personally, I'd rework Mirage's Decoy (Q) to make it climb stuff like a normal person, then let you reactivate it while the Decoy is out to place a new beacon for it to run to. Presently when you press Q it shows a little indicator where you're looking and that's where the Decoy runs to, I'd make it so you could reactivate Q as many times as you want to pick new places for it to run to. Combine that with it being able to climb like any other player would and it'd be a lot more life-like and useful.
As for his ult, I LOVE your idea for it. Switching places with it is exactly what I'd expect from Mirage, and that would actually be useful. His currently ult needs to be removed, it's just a horrific idea, not sure who came up with it, but I don't know how it made it out of testing. It's clear as day where Mirage is unless you're shooting at him from 400m away with iron sights or a 1x Holo... And Mirage is utterly defenseless the whole time, it's the definition of shooting fish in a barrel!

- F) some thoughts
ULTIMATE
1 - The ultimate can be activated twice, when active starts counting the activation time of 30 or 60 seconds
The first time activates the possibility of using the place exchange with decoy holographic of the skill Q and begins counting the duration of the activation time
The second time sends the second decoy holographic
So the ultimate has two uses in the game, so it is necessary to double-click the ultimate
The priority is always to escape, so only the activation the first time the ultimate is activated allowing the exchange of place with the skill Q, and the second priority is to deceive the enemy by sending another decoy holographic that can be used as a change of position too
2 - The duration of the holographic decoy is according to the activation time of the ultimate, when the activation ends also ends the time of the second decoy holographic
3 - The duration of the second decoy holographic starts from when it is used, has no relation to the activation time of the ultimate
This gives more control of the use of the ultimate and more versatility to the mirage
In short, ultimate allows you to change positions with the holographic decoy of the Q skill, it also allows you to send a second decoy holographic that can also be used to change position
G) some thoughts
1 - If the ultimate was simpler and much faster, it would only allow the exchange with the decoy holographic skill Q
Only the activation of the ultimate would be allowed when the holographic decoy was active
H) some thoughts
2 - The Q skill now allows you to send two decoy holographic, each with the same CD time.
The ultimate has an activation time of 30 or 60 seconds.
If you have only one decoy holographic active and the other still can be used, when pressing the ultimate again, the exchange will be made with the only active.
When you have 2 active holographic decoy, pressing the Q goes to the first one that was activated and pressing the ultimate again, switch places with the last holographic decoy that was activated.
2 decoy holographic active and the ultimate was activated
press skill Q = place switch with the first decoy holographic that was activated
press the ultimate again = switch place with the last holographic decoy that was activated
3 - When the ultimate is activated it can add 15 or 30 or 60 seconds of duration in the decoy holographic skill Q
4 - All other possibilities and ideas that have been added previously in other examples of situations, is worth the same for this H) some thoughts
Replying to KILLACYLUS77:
Currently Passive and Ultimate are useless.
Players LVL 1 to LVL 20
React Passive:
He disappeared, I have no idea where he is.
React Ultimate:
Several of them have appeared and none of them move, I have no idea where he is
Players LVL 20 to LVL 100
React Passive:
The moment you dropped the mirage, look at that huge transparent potato, shoot
React Ultimate:
Look at that huge transparent potato running and still unarmed, shoot
The reaction of players LVL 20 to LVL 100 is instantaneous, the passive and ultimate is of no use at all
For this reason the Rework of Passive and Ultimate
